Chapter 1384: Chapter 1483: Accepting the Trial
"Thanks to my three years of effort, I’ve extracted the charm and environment of Spiritual Energy, ultimately increasing the success rate to 30%. I can barely disguise myself as a magic master of spirit refinement, but can you handle this?"
"Damn it, I don’t even have a rune. I must be dreaming."
One by one, people cursed and grumbled. While withdrawing in frustration, their faces turned ashen, and they gnashed their teeth.
Nearly 4,000 people participated in the evaluation, and more than 2,000 did not make any modifications. Naturally, many were outraged.
Qin Feng fiddled with the talisman in his hand and turned to look at it.
When Qin Feng cast the move again, he was shocked to find that most of them were alone, not waiting for the Fu Sect family to evaluate them.
"Damn it, creating some messy competition, seriously try refining magic. Will they die?"
"Thanks to my three years of hard work, I extracted the charm and environment of Spiritual Energy, raising the success rate to 30%. I can barely disguise myself as a magic master of spirit refinement, but can you manage this?"
"Damn it, I don’t even have a rune. I must be dreaming."
One by one, people cursed and grumbled. While withdrawing in frustration, their faces turned ashen, and they gnashed their teeth.
Nearly 4,000 people participated in the evaluation, and more than 2,000 did not make any modifications. Naturally, many were outraged.
Qin Feng fiddled with the talisman in his hand, watching those who successfully cast their spells. He looked back at Guan Sheng, only to see Guan Sheng smiling as he tossed the talisman in his hand, looking at it with satisfaction. Finally, he smiled and said, "Brother Duan, you’re really lucky. You cast the spell at the last moment. But if you meet the requirements, let’s change the way we do this. You were the best in the preliminary test. If you can’t pass this, it would be a big joke."
Qin Feng looked at Guan Sheng’s demeanor, curled his lips, and said, "Two items, both said not to bother me."
"You..." Guan Sheng’s face turned cold, and he snorted coldly before stopping troubling himself.
At this time, Shang Manqing’s voice rang again: "Those who successfully stood out, take your spells for evaluation now."
Immediately, someone came forward.
"Your charm effect doesn’t seem to match the evaluation requirements," Shang Manqing cast a spell and coldly said to a young magician.
The young man’s face turned pained, pleading, "Master, I can only use those herbs to make this talisman, but the quality of my talisman is really high. Please take a look."
"No, you can leave." Shang Manqing left no room for negotiation.
"Almost, no way!"
"Master, I’ve long admired you. Let me stay and be your pharmacist."
"I’ve seen many flatterers. Let’s go."
"Well, indeed. You will become our charm master in the future."
"Hmm, this charm is high-quality. You can proceed to the next round and compete for the top position."
The final results came out one after another, success and failure were basically half and half. For those who failed, entering the Fu Wen Sect this year was hopeless, but there’s always next year. Successful individuals have already become part of Fu Sect’s charm masters. Among them, the most outstanding can enter the final round and compete for the top of this Rune Refinement conference. It’s said that the reward is very attractive, even offering the chance to become a private disciple of several Amulet Masters of the Buddhist Sect.
"Being the disciple of the Great Elder is worth it. Your refined charm is high quality." Shang Manqing put down Guan Sheng’s charm, smiling and looking at him.
Guan Sheng lifted his head, confidently asking, "Master Shang, who do you think will take first in the second round?"
Shang Manqing smiled and said, "The second round doesn’t need a ranking. If I have to judge, yours and Jijiya’s charm are of comparable merit, it’s really hard to judge for a while."
"Ji Ziya!" Guan Sheng’s face turned cold.
Just two years ago, the woman barely grasped charm mastery. Is she capable of competing with him? After that, wouldn’t he fall behind?
Guan Sheng was very frustrated for a moment.
Ji Ziya’s attitude towards him was too indifferent. Looking into her eyes felt like looking at someone else, just like looking at an ant. This not only made Guan Sheng unwilling to pursue Ji Ziya but also infuriated him.
Just then, a solemn voice suddenly caught Guan Sheng’s attention.
"Master Shang, come and take a look!"
Hearing the master’s voice, Shang Manqing, Guan Sheng, and those around them immediately looked over, only to see Qin Feng standing next to the master.
Feeling like the center of attention, Qin Feng’s face turned dark: what’s going on?
"Brother Shangwu, look at this Duan Jian’s charm." freēwebnovel.com
"Hmm?" seeing the doubt on his face, Shang Manqing was also curious and immediately took the talisman. Soon, his face was filled with astonishment.
"You managed to cast such a powerful spell with those herbs? The charm’s effect far exceeds our expectations, even better than predicted! Shang Manqing was shocked and took a deep breath. Shang Manqing exclaimed, "Duan Ren, the spell you cast is stronger than the best we set, it’s not even the same kind of spell at all. How did you do it?"
This was like a judge posing a 100-point question. It’s hard for the weak to pretend to be strong. But how difficult is it for the strong to keep a low profile?
According to the test’s requirements, he formulated talismans that met expectations. Who would have thought it would exceed the standards again?
That’s good. In the first test, these people merely started to notice him, but now they all looked at him as if he was a ghost.
"Ahem," Qin Feng coughed twice and couldn’t help but say, "Elder, I should be able to enter Fu Sect now, right?"
"Of course, is there any reason otherwise?" Shang Manqing said, "After the third round, I accept you as my disciple. I hope you won’t refuse."
As soon as those words came out, countless envious eyes fell on Qin Feng. Someone wanted to get into the Rune Sect so badly that they would break their head in. Getting recognized by any Rune Master as a personal disciple is a blessing cultivated over generations. But Duan Jian was so eager for a charm master.
Qin Feng laughed and said, "Haha, entering the Dragon Gate, how delightful." As for the third round, I don’t plan to participate."
"What?" Shang Manqing was shocked.
Those around were also surprised; this was truly remarkable. Not only was his ability unexpected, but even his decision was unforeseen. How could such a person be at the Rune Refinement conference?
"You are definitely the first in the first and second rounds, but you don’t want to see the third round!" Shang Manqing was agitated, his voice slightly sharp.
Qin Feng said, "As long as I can enter and learn from the masters, it’s enough for me. I’m not interested in competing for the first reward."
Shang Manqing snorted coldly, "You think that as soon as you enter, you can get the master’s inheritance? You are underestimating our legacy."
"Hmm?" Qin Fengling froze for a moment, then immediately asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Shang Manqing said, "Only the best magicians can enter the Buddhist Sect headquarters for personal guidance from the master. In the future, they will become a new charm master of the Fu Sect. Most have to work in the Treasure Tower across the country, serving the Ween Sect at the lowest level for more than five years before getting a chance to enter the main gate of the Ween Sect. Do you want to start from the bottom or enter the main gate of Fu Sect directly?"
"I see."
Qin Feng immediately realized the issue. It’s like a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, divided into novice and formal disciples. If you don’t study hard for several years, you can’t truly learn from the teacher. The same goes for Magicians of the dharma gate. In fact, almost all major factions have similar rules. After all, each major faction has the lowest level of work to be done. Naturally, the people who do this work are the lowest level disciples. The worst ones can’t get excellent inheritance and education.
